Hello everyone,.
We are back with another awesome interview! Pablo and his awesome Mazda wagon blew my mind. Awesome attention to detail and working with little aftermarket support. I appreciate how creative he got by using other makes accessories. Pablo clearly knows his cars and he has an excellent history of building cars. I am glad he has taken the chance with this wagon and continues to build it. At the time of this interview going live we can assure that he has already added a few goodies to the car. He may go Boosted soon lol I appreciate your time Pable and thank you for being super supportive man. Thank you all! #automotiveanatomy

@evangelist669 3 года назад

To be honest I have always secretly thought these cars were badass. It was just a shame that they never really caught on in the scene and the aftermarket backing was lacking at best. I would love to see more of them done properly like this one on the road.

Dude omg I love my Honda’s but when I see something different like this brings a huge smile on my face. Funny cuz when I first got into cars my buddy had one of these and we swore we would make it fast lol never did this thing is badass props to the owner. And much love from Sac Cali to automotive anatomy! ❤️🤛🏽

This by far, was the best handling and best looking compact back in the early 2000s. I had one of these and 2 years later, I bought a 2003.5 Mazdaspeed Protege - both brand new. Had lots of fun driving both of them.

Beautiful 5, Pablo. I have a sedan and I'm doing an identical mechanical build. Was contemplating going turbo myself, but there's something about keeping it NA and dailying it. They are lovely little cars

@dbrxsdgo 2 года назад

Thanks for posting this. Only available for two model years in the U.S. Super sleeper. I owned a red 2003. It always put a smile on my face... and that's with no mods. Loved this car. Unfortunately, I was rear-ended while stopped in traffic and that totaled it, bent frame. I replaced it with a 2015 3 hatchback. It's quieter and more fuel efficient, but doesn't handle or feel as good as the P5.

The handling of these BJ series Mazdas is AMAZING. I have the non-turbo 1.8 Ford Laser KQ SR (Basically a Protege but Ford badged) with Gabriel Shocks on stock springs on 17x7.5" rims and it's a blast around the twisties, not exaggerating.

@gcrady 3 года назад

I bought my 1997 Mercury Tracer wagon new, 23 yrs ago. It was the first year of the Ford/Mazda collaboration. Looked sexy, (especially with the metallic red paint), so I immediately modded it up with MazdaSpeed components that bolted right on. And the engine was built by Cosworth racing just for 3 years. Then it sat for 15yrs. NOW, here I am 23 years later reviving my Glorified Grocery Getter. Pablo pointed out so many details that I'll be able to use , and get my car performing and looking like nothing else on the road.

@Gronozzz 2 года назад

I had four of them. Now left two of this great cars. Both are 2.0 and one is with original Sportive package. Love this cars! I drove with many cars but they just make some unique connection. Many many work and new parts and now me and my girlfriend have everyday a big pleasure to hit the road 🤘😎. Smoking oil is typical for them ...unfortunately. Piston rings are rubbish and when you floor it it takes carbon deposit on them . Wary fragile for oil quality and frequency of changing it.

@americanrelics2552 2 года назад

I regret selling my P5 every frickin day. Miss it so much. And this is probably the sweetest one I've seen yet.

@mescko 2 года назад

My '03 is dark blue. And it was well-optioned also--leather, CD changer, chromed wheels, sunroof, safety package (ABS and side airbags). I put aftermarket taillamp clusters on which are mostly black, I HATE red so the stockers had to go. 5 speed of course, I'm running 5 cars, no slushboxes in sight (and that includes the two projects in the shop). And if you're a car guy, please pronounce Re-neau properly.

Mine is the automatic version of it and it's so fun to daily drive.

@chrishuyler3580 10 месяцев назад

Bought mine in March of '03. Stereo, window tint, lowering springs, wheels were all done by the end of that summer. Made some life long friends over the following 2-3 years that I see for a few events a year still, even though most of us don't own Mazdas anymore. I drove that car to 100k miles but when the rust bubbles started forming around the wheel arches and rear hatch, I replaced it with a Mazdaspeed6. I'd buy another one for sure, but only if I could find a clean low mile example in laser blue or yellow (or possibly a spicey orange MSP).

@ydrinkcoke Год назад

Man the '02 ES was my first car. I also was sucked in by the fog lights. I've had the 02 ES, the 02 MP3, the 03.5 MSP, and the 03 MP5. This is a great example of a car where the specs don't tell the full story. The handling and feedback from the car is excellent. You can feel the road extremely well, but somehow it doesn't feel cheap or uncomfortable. Everything about the car is extremely solid feeling (potentially due to the stock sway/strut bars). The gear ratio is also extremely tight so the car is more zippy than it really deserves. Delete those door guards!

Miss my Protege5, literally his exact setup except I had a ported 626 intake manifold, and a ssafc to tune the air fuel, made 192hp na, went turbo and blew it cause the weak rods 😂 regret ever getting rid of it. They are fun low hp daily that ride on rails In the corners.

@asylumville8544 Год назад

There's no way you made 192hp with just a ported intake manifold haha

@brandoncrider3697 Год назад

@@asylumville8544 wasn't just a ported intake manifold, the the fsze has higher compression pistons, larger cams, also had larger valves along with the head being port matched aswell, I did pretty much everything I could to make 192hp. Only a 22hp gain over stock for a lot more money than I'd like to admit 🤣
